So i have a g35s sedan. and its blue slate. I got quoted by a very good clear bra installer in town. and they are asking 600 installed. Is that a good price or too much? Thanks guys!

good price. buddy of mine in Mid TN does the 3m clear bra - it takes alot of time to do right. ALways a chance of a tear or loss of material and that stuff is crazy expensive. My guy has computer that precuts patterns for model and make. It is a sick setup - great product. It is going on my 04 sedan hood mirrors and headlights in next 30 days. plus a 35% tint

well you could start off by sayin what you are having done. Depending on where you are installing the vinyl and how much of it will factor into the cost

I was always interested in getting a clear bra installed...but after thinking about it, getting a bumper repainted is around that price range, right?

...although it's painful to see paints chips accumulate throughout the year.

That's a great price if done by a quality installer. I paid $575-$600 with tip for the front bumper, front lights,front fenders, & side view mirrors. This was done by a quality installer nearly 3 years ago and holding up very well.
